Hospice Care

Hospice care provides comfort to terminally ill patients who have stopped medical treatment. The main goal of hospice care is the comfort of the patient and their family. It is important to understand that hospice is not a specific place—it is a specific type of care provided.

The heart of this specialized care is the belief that every individual has the right to die pain-free and with dignity. To help ensure that outcome, The Denver Hospice care model brings together a team of skilled professionals – experts in medicine, nursing, pain management, integrative therapies and psychological and spiritual support- to provide care customized to each individual’s needs and wishes. The patient’s loved ones receive support as well. To learn more, read our Patient and Family Guide.

In-Home Hospice Care

For many individuals and families, being able to receive hospice care in the comfort of one’s own home brings great peace of mind.
